Truckhouse’s BCT is a Toyota Tacoma reimagined into a mid-sized expedition vehicle composed of a carbon fiber reinforced house and featuring off-road specs.
The BCT is self-contained. In the past, due to the Tacoma’s midsize payload, to convert the popular truck to a camper, choices were limited to pop-up camper toppers or tents. A single-piece carbon fiber reinforced composite house manufactured using state-of-the-art vacuum infusion processes tops the BCT. Truckhouse worked diligently to assure that the BCT’s exterior design flows perfectly with the Tacoma’s lines.
In explaining the design process, TruckHouse COO and cofounder Nicolo Monforte said, “We started by breaking down what the perfect overland camping experience was to us, and from there we built the most capable and livable vehicle we could imagine. We selected the Toyota Tacoma for its modest size, maneuverability, and proven longevity. We then built a carbon fiber-reinforced composite house to match everything we love about the truck and its utility.”
Other features in the housing of the BCT include a torsion-free mounting system and a rooftop solar array. The interior provides sleeping accommodations for 4 adults, a complete galley, and a wet bath. The interior standing height is 6’ 3-1/2”.
